i have compiled a listing of wreckers and import shops around australia, basically it involved a lot of trawling thru the phone books and the internet and automotive publications.. this listing supercedes the old threads located in 'local chatter' for your state.

there is enough information here that you should never be able to not find a part/engine for your car.

if you know of any other wreckers/import/parts shops that are around the place, please let us know by posting it as a reply to this thread.

more stock is always arriving. if jap heaven dont have the part that you want they can order it in for you at a reasonable price. jap heaven also provide a free delivery service to the melbourne metro area.

talk to mick at jap heaven for some good advice & great help.. mick owns an imported u13 sss (sr20det) and is really keen to help out other nissan owners & is especially interested in helping out antrx.com & our u12/u13 owners.

i have some jap heaven business cards to hand out at the next cruise for those interested.

nis part dat part is deffinatley still open, i picked up a trx kit there 2 weeks ago and some second hand tires a few days ago. another good one to add to the list, they are always very friendly and ussually have the part i need (they have lots of u12s). theres a white trx rear skirt there btw

This is an awesome thread, still no where in ACT to get parts though. We had a jap parts but he apparently was not paying the gov so he got axed. I needed seats for the front of my TRX recently and I ended up driving to goulburn to get a pair of Corsair Ghia seats, Paid $75 for the pair.

Phone book ? I agree thats what these forums are for, to help the nis and dat nuts out there.

- Datswreck no longer do wrecking. They might do other stuff, but sounded like he wanted the number taken off the internet! - Nissall motor wreckers' number is disconnected, did not do a net search to see if they are still in business.- Best Jap number is also disconnected, ditto above.- ML Wreckers have now closed down - land line is disconnected (this info came from the guy who answered the mobile). - RCB Performance number takes you to the parents of the guy who used to run that business, which is now defunct (however they have a few parts lying around in the garage!).- None of the rest have a starter motor for an Attesa manual. Two might have one for an auto, one of these, far away, reckons he might be able to find a manual one based on looks if I bring-in mine.

thanks for the feedback.. and yes agreed that the list is pretty old. i myself have tried to have a look through some of the queensland and south australia places that used to be quite good in the past and the majority are now non existent.

i've just gone through the listings for all states that have websites, i have removed the listings where the websites no longer work. i won't bother calling all the places on the list. if anyone has any feedback on wreckers that no longer exist or new ones that have popped up, let me know and i'll modify the list in the OP.

or if you're me and you own a euro car now, these guys http://eurocarparts.com.au are generally very helpful, but i've found you can order non-genuine new parts from overseas cheaper than they sell 2nd hand parts.

i had a look at allstate autos this morning and noticed they have a good range of 2nd hand turbos for quite cheap.. although i'm sure the market has dropped since people started using chinese turbos, but if anyone is interested, this i their stock
